And it promises to be indeed a beautiful tomorrow. With 5689 as anindicator, we seem po be on the threshold of. a year of unparalleled activity. A hew spirit of Jewish consciousness has been awakened, a new zeal for Judaism has been kindled. The frame of Jewish pride in things Jewish, which but a short time ago was like the flicker of a tiny candle, is now a burning torch, a vital, living force. We are in the midst of a true Jewish Renaissance.

• , Summer Play School A recent study of the cases handled at the Juvenile Court of Omaha, made by Dr. Hammer of the University of Omaha, shows that the greatest amount of Juvenile Delinquency occurs just after school closes and that most of the offenders are boys of eight and girls of eleven. "With this in view, the Jewish Welfare Federation opened its first Summer Play School directly after the Public Schools closed for the summer vacation. In all, twenty-one sessions were held with a total attendance of 4900 and an enrollment of 315 children. Forty-one teachers gave volunteer assistance. It is our hope that next year the school will be conducted for July and The Daughters of Zion are proud The Daughters of Zion, a local organAugust. to contribute the above . check ization, work solely for the Jewish for the Palestine Emergency, Fund.

It is our hope that such a step will lead to better Jewish communal work and more effective social work program. Nearly fifty organizations have been invited to participate, by the Chairman, Harry H. Lapidus. Palestine Emergency Fund When word reached us of the brutal massacres of the Jews in Palestine by the Arabs, on Friday, August 30, Federation heads called a special meeting on the same day, organized for action and sent §1,000 immediately.

LARGE CROWD HEARS DEBATE AT LYCEUM A crowd which filled the Labor Lyceum to overflowing haard the debate last Wednesday between Morris Minkin and Dave Resnick on the "Present -Situation in Palestine and the Stand ,©f the_ Jewish, Communists and their o"rga^-'Me:Freibeit." •"' " Resnick, defending the Communists stand, spoke first. He stated that i was imperative for the international to progress, even in detriment to the nationalistic tendencies. He claimed that the outbreak in the Holy Land was not a pogrom in any sense of the •world, but merely a revolution. It was his contention that the Arabs, Tight had been suppressed by the Jew and England. The crowd was against the speaker, cries of "It's a lie" being frequently heard. * Mr. MinMn, in his address, blamed the Palestine Jewish communists for aiding in bringing about the pogrom. He illustrated from London and Arab newspapers how communists spread propaganda which was totally untrue. He also blamed the Freiheit for falsifying telegrams and instigating rumors that the Jews were taking advantage of the Arabs. Mr. Minldn presented a cartoon from the Freiheit which depicted the Arabs being crucified by Jews and Englishmen. He also deplored the fact that certain Omaha organizations were contributing to the Freiheit fund.

Rosh Hashona, 5690 By

RABBI FREDERICK COHN

of Temple Israel

We stand at the threshold of another "New Year." What it holds for iis we cannot tell. We cannot lift the curtain of the future. As our Bible says t "The hidden things belong to God, the revealed things are for us and our children."' The New Year will "reveal" itself to us day by day. May they be revelations of happiness, for us, for Israel and for the entire world. We "know not what a day may bring forth" much less a year of days* As the poet Tennyson has beautifully expressed it:

THE TORCH OF LEARNING

i §•• s6

Flowing down the bills of eternity, the Hebrew language has always tieen the rich, red blood which has given life and permanence iojewishness. Hebrew, the word of God and the Prophets, has been the Jew's sole weapon in warding off the ealumnous attacfis continually suffered during the many centuries we have been living in the Diaspora. On-Rosh Hashonah, a day set aside for meditation, it is well to ponder the significance of our sacred tongue. To perpetuate ourselves we must perpetuate our language. It is the golden hinge Upon which our national and religious existence turn. If we cast aside ^our Hebrew we also cast aside the well-spring of Jewish feeling and the inspiration of Jewish life. like the legendary Wandering Jew, the flickering torch of Hebrew learning, passing from East to West, from North to South, has lit the way to perpetuity. Indeed, without Hebrew we would not today be preparing to celebrate Rosh Hashonah and YomKippur. : Today Palestine affords ample proof that Hebrew is a living language. As a result of the rebuilding of a national Jewish homeland, fluent Hebrew is spoken everywhere in the Holy Land. The agricultural Hassadeh, the medical Harefua, the legal Hamighpat, the technical Taasiya Ubinyan, the laborite Hadavar, the literary D'oar Hayom, and a host of other Hebrew perodicals printed in the Holy Land are eloquent witnesses to the growth of our tongue. Further, the Hebrew University is making rapid strides of progress, already recognized as both a center of research and a normal training school, — Thus, concommitant with the upbuilding of our homeland has been the rebirth of our holy language, repaying us a thousandfold for our sacrifices to the Jewish cause. With Eretz.Yisroel again pur home, our land, Hebrew, that inspiring torch of learnnig, is once more destined to sway mankind and humanize the world.

"Behold, we know not anything . ' We can but trust that good will fall ;' r At last — far-off — at last — to all And every winter cliange to spring." May all that is dark and wintry in our lives — disappointment, sorrow,, ihisfortune, sickness, unhapphiess — turn to success, health, joy and prosperity. May we see every noble hope realized, every worthy plan carried to gratifying fulfillment. For Israel, too, may the winter of persecution and suffering turn to the spring of joy and well-being. Our hearts have been grieved by the terrible happenings in Palestine. In other parts of the world, too, Israel's lot has not been the brightest. The Jew must carry on his martyr-role of suffering. But the God whom Israel serves will not forsake or forget him. "He sleepeth not and slumbereth not, the keeper of Israel." God will keep Israel's "soul" — not merely his physical eooistence, as He has preserved it through four thousand marvelous years, but also'his brilliant spiritual powers of heart and brain He will keep devoted and true to the God of his life and his love. Israel will be faithful through all. Hardships will but spur him on to greater heroism. The world's injustice will but awaken greater loyalty to the God of justice and of truth. Israel's mission in the world will be accomplished. Each year brings us nearer to it. Israel throughout the world hi its synagogues and temples will pray to God for new strength and new steadfastness and whate'er befall each year will be "happy" in the consciousness of duty nobly attempted and of difficulty bravely borne. May God be with each and every one of us and grant to nil the realization of his heart's wish, the fidfiillment of his soul's desire. fA bright and blessed "New Year" to one and all.

pNWARD WITH THE JEWISH AGENCY ;•••; The consummation of the extended Jewish Agency has in-i sured an irradicable niche for the year 5689 in Jewish annal?. The 'age-old dream of the Jews for the restoration of a national life in jthe Holy Land is infinitely nearer realization; the disease of internal dissension has been cured.- All over the world Jews are r e solved that our common Judaism shall not be crushed out by shorfr Sighted fanatics for local patriotism—a Jewish national homeland ;is our united goal. I The resurrection of the Jewish nation on its own soil has reopened its sacred fountain of creative energy. But the 160,000 Jews in Palestine are insufficient in number. We need fresh bjood in building up the land. The answer to" Arab decimation \a jjewish immigration. '•. Further, we cannot allow a handful of Ghaluzim to carry the ientire burden. The Jewish Agency enables all of us to lighten ithat load by material aid, for besides immigration, we are in : dire need of money." Money-power and man-power form the backibone in the development of the country. This the Jewish Agency jwijl supply. ' \ \ No longer are splendid efforts wasted because of duplication. The fusiori of dynamic leadership and unlimited influences are not {to be discoijnted;? in:fao't, it ha.s already begun to bear fruit. iThe Jewish Agenpy'8 handling of the Arab situation has been commendable. : . : The Jewish Agency, can ab]y administer the affairs of Palestine, organize work in other countries, and protect Jewish interests in international parleys. We prophesy that the Jewish Agency, iwhich has already unified Israel, will lead the Jews into the promised land.

TO YOUR TENTS, O ISRAEL As we stand on the threshold of a new year glowing with promise, OUF hearts are stili heavy with grief and anxiety over the Palestine catastrophe. Those closing days of 5689 were Igrievious ones for the Jews, darkness falling heaviest when the sun shone* brightest. The delirious joy-note of the consummation of the Jewish Agency ha$ scarcely sounded when murderous Moslems overwhelmed ijs with afflictiQn.. EquiUT?riiUTi is, now being restored* The picture is less blurred by grief, and emotionsare under control. Agitated feelings are giving way to sober reflection and constructive thought. / :- We must profit by the experiences of those tragic atrocities. As British statesmen, like Passfield and Churchill assure us, England's obligations will be faithfully djcharged. Mighty England, whose gaze sweeps over all seas, will fulfil her pledge to. the Jewish people and ajid in the re-establishment of a Jewish national homeland But we must do more. We must stand by these hardy pioneers as" never before, Colonies must be rebuilt, Yeshivas restored. Precautions must be taken that those horrifying scenes are a repeated. Greater zeal and a firmer spirit of sacrifice must make Up for what has been mutilated and destroyed. We must do even more -than lend material help. We must aid spiritually. If the Jewishness. of these pioneers falls, ours fallsalso. The Jewish religion is the key to our immortality, and on the eve of Rosh Hashonah we must resolve to aeajqusly guard

A New/ Yehr Message By

ABRAHAM BEN&IS,

THOUGHTS

Rabbi of the Conservative Synagogue

: Tn, the reading of both the Pentateuchal portion and that of the 'prophets on tlie first day of Bosh Hashonah we find a fitting keynote for our'Nete Tear message. Both the Torah and Haftorah stories treat of the same subject, JEWISH MOTHERS and JEWISH CHILDREN. Sarah, whose son was Isaac, was the first Jewish mother. Hannah, the. mother of Samuel, lived at a later period when our people xvere establisUng their national life, beset with enemies and dangers on all sides. Both serve as ideal types of Jewish motherhood, an inspiration . to the Jewish mother of today. Sarah and Hannah were concerned not alone with the physical well-being of their children. Their spiritual welfare meant vastly more. They we're conscious of their Jewish duty. Tenderly and devotedly they guarded the Jewish tradition. Jewish education was their prime concern. How beautiful is tlie tradition o f'Ohel Sarah," the tent of Sarah wliere the "Ner Doluk," the kindled lamp of Jewish idealism burned from one eve of the Sabbath to the next — never extinguished! And how inspiring is the, picture of Hannah, praying at Shiloh for God's greatest gift to women, a child—not merely that she might have that womanly craving satisfied. There is a nobler purpose to Hannahs prayer. At a time of Jewish danger and insecurity, Hannah unselfishly pray8 for a son that she might give him to the service of her God and of her people. In iliis sublime manner does Hannah dedicate her yet unborn son to the Jewish future of useftdness. What a lofty conception of Jewish duty and loyalty! Throughout our long history we have had many such Sarahs and Haimalis. It is due largely to their devotion and sacrifice that the Jewish tradition has been handed down unbroken from generation to generation. And today we rightly call out "More sinful are we than all other peoples, more ashamed than all other generations." We are more sinful because in this respect of Jewish education toe are shamed by the records of our past generations. We Jiave sadly neglected this fundamental Jewish duty. In the prayer preceding the sounding of the Shofar we proclaim that "the princes of the people" are gathered together. Let this not be a vain flattery and an empty boast. Scholarship, knowledge and interest in Jewish education are the standards of Jewish aristocracy. Let us with the New Year solemnly resolve to raise the standard of Jewish education in our community to its merited level of dignity and honor. Let our Hebrew School become once more the most cherished and outstanding institution in our communal life, the center and ob,icc, of our activity'and hope. In this way only will Judaism be perpetuated and an honorable Jewish future insured.

The reason for this assigning of duties to the "Wife is a story of gradual development. Unlike the Greeks and Romans, the Hebrew man was first regarded as a husband and father, and lastly as a soldier.

cago for a great many years, and it was only natural that his son should follow in his foot-steps. Mr* Mueller puts into his •work all the experience of 22 years as a contractor. He was associated with the Stewart Contracting Company of New York for a period of 17 years. Following his connection with the New York firm he came to Omaha and was engaged for five years with the Selwyn-Jacobs Company here. In the two years previous to his connection with Mr. Brodkey he was with the Edwin Ahlshog Company of Chicago. One of the largest grain elevators in Omaha was built by Mr. Mueller several years ago. The amazing record of Brodkey Company is a source of genuine happiness to Mr. Mueller. The building of real buildings is his greatest life interest. From his many years of experience in the business he haz gleaned a knowledge of the building art which is denied most men. His rich experience, and his judgment, seasoned by 22 years of experience in the field qualifies him for the faith and trust which people place in him.

This five-story structure in the busiest of downtown Omaha is "Without doubt one of the outstanding buildings erected during the past year. Though having a comparatively narrow frontage the Natelson's store stands but as few larger buldings. The buliding is unique inasmuch as it combines the many features usually only incorporated in much larger structures.. Making Old Buildings New A combination construction project of the Brodkey organization was the remodeling of the two floors of the Conant Hotel to house the McLellan Stores and the Hotel Conant Restaurant.

Breaking the Qround for the New Faidley Building

The Beginning of excavating for the new Faidley was startey recently. This is the .first-step in the construction of what will be one of Omaha's finest down-town office and shop buildings.

Many store owners have turned unpopular and unsightly old store buildings into revenue producing spaces with the help of the Brodkey organization. The increasing demand by the public for the ultimate in store appearance has been a great impetus to the business of the organization, as well as a great help to store owners. The splendid modern United

company is doing with old store buildings. Situated at a busy corner the smart appearance of the store is an inducement • to passers-by. The remodeling of the United Cigar Stores building was made by the Brodkey Company at a cost of $10,000. An Indication of Faith. The unprecedenned success of the Brodkey Construction Company is a fine demonstration of how Omaha people keep faith with an organization that keeps faith with them. When the Brodkey Company undertakes a building job it means that the people of the community are to benefit as the building gets under way. It means that a large number of Omaha men will receive many thousands of dollars in salaries; it means that Omaha firms will sell thousands of dollars worth of building materials for the new structure. With a business founded on this policy of "building Omaha first," it is not unusual that the community should find sincere pleasure, in seeing this great organization progress

AGUDATH CONGRESS AT VIENNA CLOSES Vote Down Jewish Agency; Ask Divine, Aid for Russian Jews Vienna.—(J. T. A.)—The feelings of the. Orthodox Jews affiliated with the Agudath Israel were expressed Jn & number of resolutions passed in the concluding sessions of the congress Here. Five resolutions dealt with the Palestinian situation. The members assembled deplored the tragic events, thanked those who had aided in rescuing the Jewish populace, and asked that'England pay compensation after a non-partisan investigation. The question of the Jewish-Agency was one of the most heatedly discussed at the congress. A special committee of the Rabbinical Council was; drfv session on this matter and it is understood that a heated debate took .place, in'which; Dr. Leo Jung, New York Rabbi, fought for the Agudah,, joining the Jewish Agency, but in vain. • Reports on the situation of Judaism in various countries were given at the sessions of the congress. Rabbi Kahane of New York in describing the present state of affairs in American Jewry stated that American Jews are financially in a position to support their religious institutions, which they are doing, but that there is "all too little Judaism" in Jewish life in, America. , Concerning the situation of Russian Jewry, the Agudath Israel congress adopted, a resolution invoking divine aid for the rescue of Russian Jewry which is exposed to religious persecution. The resolution authorized the executive committee to carry on negotiations-with the. Soviet government for the purpose of easing the condition^ |^nd also to obtain an undertaking, ttiat Orthodox Jews who feel bound because of their conscience to emigrate to countries where they may exercise their religion, be permitted to leave Russia. The'congress also dealt with social and economic questions and a committee to arbitrate in problems, affecting the relations between employer "and employee, as well as to guard the application of the Torah principles concerning social justice was set up. The anti-schechita agitation which has been renewed in some countries in Europe has come up before the congress'.^ The congress adopted a number of resolutions protesting. against anti-schechita legislation. A special feature of the congress' was the conference of Agudath Israel women's auxiliaries in various countries." One hundred and fifty women delegates attended this conference, in* eluding Mrs. Alter, the wife of the Gerer Reebbe.

The Jewish Women • (Continued from Page 2-B) emulator of Hypatia), Deborah, and Dulcie. The Jewish race has .been.hindered through the ages of its too evident distinct divisions—the _Ghetto product and the better class Jew. The Ghetto tljo composed for the greater part of the. lowest cast of Hebraic Type i3 the birthplace of Genius. Here it is that the Jewess .development into the' intellectual giantess she now is. The high-class or richer Jewess, has been given an education, and therefore, docs not suffer as much as the uneducated Ghetto genius. -.It behooves us all, therefore; to reverence aH Jeweses,,be they products of the Ghetto or' the.

'' WHy is it that so few plays are written on Jews either by Jews themselves or by non-Jews which are worthy of occupying a high place in the drama? In answering this question Arnold Zweig has analyzed the essential character of. the Jewish people in that keen, concise manner for which he has become internationally famous. Arnold Zweig will be remembered in this country for his best-selling novel "The Case of Sergeant GriscHa." Zweig has also distinguished himself in other branches of literature/ and has taken an intense interest in every phase of Jewish culture. —THE EDITOR. with the sacred image of his home Young, vigorous nations naively and haughtily represent the begin- inextinguishably in his heart—always nings of their history by heroes who suspicious, never at a loss for a boldly mirror the true essence of cunning trick, accepting every humtheir nature.

Achilles, beloved of the gods. The Jews of the heroic period find such a reflection of themselves in Abraham, the friend of God, and Jacob, the son of Isaac and Rebecca. In a passage of Hosea where the character of this Israel is defined we read: "In the womb he took his brother by the heel, and by his strength he strove with a godlike being; so he strove with an angel, and prevailed; he wept, and made suppication unto him; at Beth-el he would find him, and there he woulll speak with us." A Titan whom fate destined to struggle with God even in his mother's womb; this is the cell from which that figure is developed The well-known exact account of Genesis then accumulates these attributes and recounts the methods of an artful negator of force in his struggle with destiny: Imposition and deceit, fervor and an ardent desire for greatness and community with God. To the Jews of that great, stern age — this we can see clearly from the biblical account — Jacob was beloved and blessed of the Lord. It is symbolic of the desperate grandeur of his vocation that he, destined U> be born after his twin, held back the firstborn by the heel; that later, his heart filled with the eternal upward urge of a gigantic character, he took away that birthright from the robust and joyous hunter who was his brother — in exchange for food for which he, exhausted, was greedily hungry; that he took advantage of his blind old father, obtaining, through a deceitful trick, the sacred promise and blessing intended for .the eldest; that he was constantly opposedtofriends and "kin, ever in a state of tension; and that finally he bested his uncle, Laban, in a contest of wits. But this is the man who through an entire night struggled bitterly against his God — in human form — and at dawn forced Him, too, to give him His blessing, the blessing which meant that all the magic fate-compel-1 ling powers of the vanquished one flowed into him who was blessed, modifying his fortunes and the tendencies of his will, changing his entire life.

This is the man who was deemed worthy of seeing the hosts of the Lord in the heaven-revealing dream of Beth-el, who was permitted to witness the fulfillment of the blessing he had obtained through force, trickery and suffering: To know — at the end of a long life full of joy and sorrow, the life of now a fugitive and now r. guest of kings — that an entire nation sprung from his loins would inhabit the fruitful Promised Land. 2553 Farnam AT. 6543 A people that can set up so earthly 5 and innerly discordant an imagg of itself on the horizon of its history is aware of its intrinsic duality and has the courage to confess it.

But at times of defeat or greater moral conscious-1 ness it feels as a reproach that which earlier, before its moral doubts had arisen, it was able to set up as its ideal. Then it peeks to justify its progenitor before its own more delicate sense of moral values; but although it censures his ch&rac* tetf and the means he employed in his rise it cannot deny entirely him who was truly blessed. With psychological analysis, therefore, it places the blame for many important traits of this new rejected ancestor upon his mother, who had made him her favorite, and works untiringly at apologies that are to raise the Titan to sainthood. Thus the force that impels Jewish writers to use biblical material may be defined as the wish to derive from the great wealth of undistorted herois figures of ancient Jewish cur* rents whose influence would augment the -prestige of modern Jews. And this brings us to the Jewish playa that represent the Jew of today — ..A Service That Will Meet Your Every Unembellished, in all his greatness and abjectness.

Short Story by r

• Sam Horowitz was as unromantic as a cookstove. As unromantic as the vulcanizers in his automobile repair shop. Otherwise, he -was a simple, unassuming young man, getting along pretty well in this world. At twentyBeyen lie found: himself the sole proprietor of the Busy Bee Repair Shop and ready to settle down. Looking Ground at the girls he knew casually, in his sober, phlegmatic way, he asked himself which one he should marry. Unfortunately his choice fell on Nanette Mintz. Unfortunately? Do not think that Nanette was not a pretty girl. Too pretty, perhaps. For her heart-shaped face and soft blond hair sowed dreams, far flung visions in her breast. This hunger, this craving to do something with her looks

led her, as it did so many others, to dream of going in the movies. Working for twenty minutes with a can of grease dissolvant, Sam decided he was sufficiently immaculate, though there was still a telltale rim of grime under his finger-nails. Climbing with a careless air into his car of doubtful antecedents, Sam proceeded down Main Street. He was going, in his humble way, to call on Nanette Mintz. He drove obliviously past drug stores that displayed boxes of candy in inviting array and windows crammed with flowers to make any girl feel like a movie queen. True, in time Sam planned to buy her a box of candy. As yet the affair had not progressed that far. But he saw

throw stones. Oh, Sam, I didn't see you." Silently Sam unwrapped the package he had in his hand, revealing a bouquet of violets. "If you'll .let down a string, I'll send up the flowers." Little Sarah began jumping up and down on her short, fat legs. "Oh, look at Romeo and Julyet, look at Romeo and Julyet. Say, my sister's a regiar Julyet" Nanette quickly drew in her head. "Come on in, if you want to see me, Sam. Don't be ridiculous!" The window closed with a bang. Sam did not go in. Ignoring the shouts of derision from the children, he tossed the flowers on the porch and made his way to his car. He did not look back to see whether Nanette stood in the door awaiting him. In the pleasant, grimy shop, reeking of gasoline and oil, of things homely and familiar, Sam sat on a. chair which had long since lost its back. No, he wasn't romantic . But he was honest. He was hard-working. He wanted to settle down and rear a family. Especially now he wanted Nanette. However, on the following Wednesday evening, the one evening a week he took off, the evening dedicated to Nanette, he stayed in the shop and gave his mechanic an extra holiday. More Wednesdays passed and Sam could not bring himself to go to see Nanette nor to telephone her. If it was romance she wanted, moving pi<s ture romance, all he could do was take her to the movies. There was nothing he could do. The weeks drifted by and he had to content himself with snatches of gossip. Nanette, he heard, was going around with a musician, one of the players in a downtown supper club orchestra. He had played in a stage orchestra. When Sam heard these things he became resigned. He could not compete. Where Nanette was concerned, how could a repair shop owner compare with a musician, one who had been on the stage, one who played the guitar under her window. And then one morning when Sam arrived at the shop, already there haft been a call for him. He recognized the number and telephoned back, anxiety and joy mingling within him. He asked for Nanette. Coolly, calmly, as if there had l«en no break in their relationship, she spoke. "Oh, hello, Sam. I just wanted to know how you are and to ask

ahead to the epochal moment when he •would take her candy, when he would loss her, when, eventually and uneventfully, they would tea married. He accepted the inevitability of his destiny with good content. Life held no surprises for him and he asked none. In front of a two-family house which repeated itself with unvarying fidelity along the street, Sam drew to the curb and honked. Being a garage man, he intended to take his lady for a ride. Nanette's little sister, who had not yet reached the age where she could improve upon the name of Sarah, answered by shouting from the door: "Come on in, Nanette's not ready yet." In the living room, where Sam expected to wait, he found Nanette curled on the sofa, her face bent over a magazine. In the deepening dusk she crouched dose over the pages. •Hello," he said, and sat down beside her. I "Hello," she mumbled, not raising i her head. j "Anything the matter?" he asked. '•No, nothing's the matter/' She j sprang to her feet. "There's nothing i the matter at all. I suppose you j think I'm going Tiding with you again. t Or maybe you want to take me to the ' movies?" "If you want to go to the movies, all right." Sam was not fond of the movies. Sometimes, when he -was tired, he slipped into a corner movie house where he watched the picture until he dozed. It was not his idea of pleasure to watch strangers cavort in an undignified and sentimental manner. However, eager to please her, he agreed. "So we can go to the movies and take a ride afterwards." "And then we'll stop in i t Joe's and Til have a club sandwich and you'll have hot roast beef, and we'll get home hy twelve." Sobs choked her. "What an exciting time!" "What's the matter with it, I'd like to knowt" *'And next Wednesday you'll come at the same time and well do the same thing. No thank you. Anything but slow death like that." Sam, who considered pleasing woman a fruitless task, rose. He would not listen to her. He could not listen to her. He did not understand her. His hand on the knob, he turned. Nanette had flung herself to the couch again. To his even "Goodbye," she cried, "You're a nice boy, Sam, but, you're so unromantic" Without a word he closed the door and went out. Grunting, he climbed into his car. His brow knitted with a perplexed frown. What had happened to Nanette? Of course, he knew she loved the movies and dreamed of being an actress, but he was wise enough to know that such fantasies would soon pass. She had been contented enough until today to go with him, to be his girl. As he sat, his hand on the wheel* undecided, the evening closed about him. The lights went up in the Mintz house; one in the upper window he knew was Nanette's. Maybe if he went hack she would welcome him and go out with him as usual. Suddenly he saw a dark figure turn in at the Mintz walk and go softly up to the porch. He watched with amazement as the figure crept along the porch to the window. Soon there came a soft, crooning melody of a guitar, plaintive, whining, appealing, and a rich tenor accompaniment hummed under the breath. Suddenly 1 the door was thrown open and Sam saw Nanette framed against the hall light, her arms flung' out in a welcoming gesture. "Oh, come in, Lester. I didn't think you'd really come." "So!" Sam exploded. "So! No wonder she said I was—what was it? Unromantic!" At first Sam was inclined to give up all thought of Nanette. But a Streak of stubbornness prevailed. He was not to be outdone by a singing fellow with a guitar. His determination made up for his lack of imagination. If that was all Nanette wanted, he would give her the same stuff, though he could not sing and had never held a guitar. The next evening he went again to Nanette's house. It was earlier than usual and her little sister, Sarah, was playing with friends in the front yard. Sam avoided the front steps, but stood j beneath the window he knew was j Nanette's. He threw a pebble on the window pane. "Say," one of. Sarah's boy companions called to Sam, "quit throwing rocks. You'll break that window." Sam did not answer, but flung a handful of gravel at the window. The children stopped their game to watch him. The window went up and Nanette's blond head appeared. "If you children don't get away from there, 111 call Mamma," she called irately. "She'll teach you to

Already they /have sniashed the records by writing over $5,000,000, a staggering sum for a firm but two years of age. A branch office of the Union Padfic Assurance company was just recently opened in Chicago. The opening was hailed as of national significance, and a testimonial banquet was tendered to Mr. Wolf in the Windy City. At the banquet were many of the communal 'leaders of Chicago. Under the guidance of the H. A. Wolf company and its associates, this rapidly-growing insurance company— purely an Omaha project—is spreading the message of Omaha to surrounding centers. An Omaha Project, For that matter the entire company Is a strictly Omaha project. It is •"backed by Omaha capital, manned by Omaha men, and devoted to the in. -terests of Omaha. It has constantly improved its service in aiding the building of the city. It has contributed to its hotels, office buildings, its outlying additions, and many of its beautiful homes. It has also played an important role in the development of the downtown retail district, as well as platting two residential districts, Twin Kidge and Standard Place, Tvest of the Field Club. \ ' Among the downtown properties now managed by the H. A. Wolf company are numbered the Paxton Mock, Brandeis theater, Saunders-Kennedy, • Baird, Hospe and Nashe building, Venetian Court, Carelton and Conant hotels, and the Shukart building. Besides these the company has been very instrumental in bringing to Omaha a score of out-of-town concerns, both wholesale and retail. The past year has been the banner year of its existence. At present this remarkable company is still continuing its program of progress. Its newest project is the erection of a modern store and office building at a cost of over a-half. million dollars on the northeast corner of 16th and Douglas streets. This fine, modern, fireproof structure will be another tribute to the potency of the firm. . They are also planning the development of a new addition on West Dodge street, nearby the Brandeis and Milder mansions by Fairaeres hills. The company officials promise to make this the finest residental district ever created in the city of Omaha. The H. A. Wolf company—which \r

uation where healthy able bodied middle aged Jews walked around idle and longed for their death. What is the use of living when life is an agony, when one cannot earn enough for a dry crust of bread ? Five dollars sent by a relative in America became a real capital in the small town. For five dollars (ten Russian roubles) one could live a whole month with a family. Thirty copecks a day became the ideal earnings of an average Jew in the small town, and the one who was able to find a place to earn these thirty copecks was considered fortunate. This year, in addition to the usual sad plight of the village, has been added the misfortune of the bread cards. The card system for bread which was introduced last year over the entire Soviet Union has created such a situation that in the small towns that hundreds of Jewish families were unable to obtain any bread even for money, even though they were starving. It is a law in the Soviet Union that bread cards may be obtained only by those who are members of co-operatives. To be a member of a co-operative one may not be a declassed individual. As the majority of Jews are "declassed" they have no right to be members of co-operatives. They are therefore not entitled to bread cards. That means that it is forbidden to sell them bread even for money. In several little towns where private trade is absolutely dead and where everything must be obtained through the, co-operative the declassed Jewish families faced the danger of being left entirely without bread. Some went to the neighboring villages and bought bread directly from the peasant, but such operations could not continue for a long time. The peasant is not allowed to sell bread privately nor is the consumer permitted to buy besides, the peasants have such a poor harvest this year that they had no bread to sell.

This danger that the declassed Jews body admitted that these claims were would not be able to get any bread just, but a law cannot be changed even for money, has brought it about so easily. Therefore, the declassed that even the Jewish communists in Jewish family gradually began to the little towns have created an up- leave their old established homes in roar.

Many Unique and Original Activities to Be Carried On During ComingYear, Touching Every Phase of Jewish Life

The local Young Poale Zion has joined with the national organization's .appeal for Chaluzim to go to Palestine. Able bodied young men and women between the ages of 18 and 35 who desire to go will be aided by the Histadruth, Jewish Federation of Labor. Two local applications have already been received. All those interested in the Chaluzim organization can obtain further information from Louis Shanok, at the J. C. C, or Irvin Soiref, secretary of the local group. . "At no time in the history of Palestine are pioneers needed more than they are today" read the appeal. "If we are to maintain our Homeland we must have young men and women volunteer and dedicate themselves toward renewed Palestinian dei yelopment.'' J The Histadruth will aid in finding , jobs for those who desire this aid.

Another year has just begun, On Sabbath, too, it seems. So let this be a real year; And make come true those dreams. Now, Zlon is our goal, To i t we all must strive, Bring it above all other tribes And make Jewry alive. On I*esach at the Sedar, Fo: Freedom we do pray, We want Elijah to come in; But why all this delay? Can't we build up Palestine And make i t our home, So when Fesach comes around again The Jews won't have to roam? ,Tis fifty-six, ninety, Enough of unrestfulness, It's time we really made a go, So, onward -do we press!

about the rates you pay for electric service? In 1890 the national average household rate was 19 cents per kilowatt-hour. In 1913 this had fallen to 8.7 cents per kilowatt-hour. Today the Council Bluffs rate for domestic electricity is as low as V-* cents per kilowatt-hour. Can you find another item in your household budget whose cost has made such a decided decrease in the past 40 years? The history of electric light and power is one of reduction in rates and improvements in service, in spite of the steady increase in cost of labor and materials.
